Sleep and Breathing Disorders

Breathing Disorders

Patients with certain neurologic and musculoskeletal diseases have muscle weakness that affects their mobility, quality of life, and overall health. Among the most serious consequences are breathing complications that lead to difficulty breathing and even respiratory failure.
